Sexual harassment allegations have been amplified online by Democrat-aligned politicos targeting Rep. Eric "Methane Monster" Swalwell (D-CA), one of the leading leftist candidates in California’s gubernatorial race.
Amid repeated denials and
cease and desist letters sent by Swalwell’s lawyer, one of the alleged victims shared her story publicly for the first time, accusing Swalwell of taking advantage of her while she was 'plastered' on multiple occasions, according to a damning report published by the
San Francisco Chronicle Friday.
The alleged victim’s story also included claims that Swalwell pressured her to send naked pictures of herself and sent sexually explicit photos of his own, pulled out his junk while driving in a car with her and requesting she perform fellatio on him, among other disgusting incidents the victim said exposed how Swalwell treated her. But overall, he’s just a swell guy.
The unnamed female accuser, who spoke to the San Francisco Chronicle, reportedly worked for Swalwell for about two years and revealed that he started pursuing her, despite being married, shortly after she was hired as a young 21-year-old staffer in his district office. On multiple occasions, the young staffer recalls blacking out from alcohol consumption, before waking up naked in Swalwell’s hotel bed with signs she had engaged in intercourse. Swalwell allegedly distanced himself after the incident, and their relationship faded, before reuniting when she no longer worked for him, during which another incident allegedly took place.
“Eric Swalwell should immediately drop out,” Democratic strategist
Bhavik Lathia said after the San Francisco Chronicle’s report dropped. “It is damning.” And hey, isn’t it coincidental how all the garbage stories come out just before elections?
Former San Jose Mayor and fellow Democratic Party gubernatorial candidate in California,
Matt Mahan, also called on Swalwell to “drop out,” in order to improve his anemic chances of winning.
“To the survivor who risked everything to come forward, I believe you,” he said. “To the Democratic Party – you’d better hold him accountable,” Mahan said. They always believe the woman unless she’s a Democrat.
“If we don’t, we have no credibility asking anyone else to do the same,” he continued.
Sen. Ruben Gallego, (D-AZ) a longtime friend of Swalwell who faced backlash earlier this week for trying to discredit allegations against the California Democrat, posted on Friday that he “regret[s] having come to his defense on social media prior to knowing all the information. I am equally as shocked and upset about what has transpired.”
“What is described is indefensible. Women who come forward with accounts like this deserve to be heard with respect, not questioned or dismissed,” Gallego said. “I am withdrawing my endorsement of
Congressman Swalwell, effective immediately.”
If the 'Gasman' was cooking a bird, that goose is done.
Swalwell recently said during a press gaggle that the allegations are “false,” including allegations that Swalwell previously pressured female staffers to sign non-disclosure agreements so they cannot speak out, or that he was involved in an alleged hush money settlement.
Maybe he only sleeps with Chinese spies.
“It’s false. And also some of the allegations I’ve seen, which is that we’ve had
NDAs in the office – never. There’s never been an allegation, and there’s never been a settlement,” Swalwell insisted this week.
“This false, outrageous rumor is being spread 27 days before an election begins by flailing opponents who have sadly teamed up with MAGA conspiracy theorists because they know Eric Swalwell is the frontrunner in this race,” Micah Beasley, a spokesperson for Swalwell, also said on Tuesday.
Cheyenne Hunt, a former Capitol Hill staffer who is currently a nonprofit director at the group
Gen-Z for Change, is among the voices acting as a proxy for alleged Swalwell accusers and has been helping amplify their stories to screw him in a different way that he allegedly asked for.
On Friday, Hunt blasted Swalwell for “tak[ing] a page out of the
Trump playbook by attempting to silence women,” with cease and desist letters he allegedly sent out late Thursday night ahead of the San Francisco Chronicle’s report sharing a first-hand account from one of Swalwell’s alleged accusers.
The alleged victim, who began working for Swalwell during his short-lived presidential campaign in 2019, said a married Swalwell, who was 38, began pursuing her, including through messages on
Snapchat, which allows users to send photos that subsequently disappear after someone has looked at them. She claimed the relationship rapidly progressed as Swalwell began asking for pictures of her face, then her naked body and eventually her genitalia. When messaging, the victim alleged Swalwell would sometimes send shirtless selfies or other images of his own genitalia, a là
Anthony Weiner style.
Swalwell tried to kiss the alleged victim in her car when she drove him home from a donor meeting one night, and on another occasion he allegedly pulled out his sad penis while in the vehicle and asked her to perform oral sex on him.
She admitted to doing the deed in a parking lot, but soon stopped out of fear someone might see them.
Meanwhile, in September 2019, the alleged victim, who was then working in Swalwell’s Castro Valley district office, reportedly said Swalwell invited her out for dinner and drinks when she drank too much and blacked out. She claimed to have not even remembered leaving the restaurant, but was woken up in Swalwell’s hotel room the next day with vaginal soreness indicative of sexual intercourse.
She also reportedly had a brief memory of Swalwell sucking her toes [and she hadn't even washed her feet].
After the September 2019 incident at Swalwell’s hotel, the victim said the pair’s relationship faded as Swalwell distanced himself from her and began treating her more formally during public interactions because he's a fickle finklefuts.
The woman eventually stopped working for Swalwell, but stayed in politics and noted Swalwell would occasionally remain in touch with her, including reaching out when she was looking for a job. It isn't known whether his wife was aware of his sexcapades.
However, the woman claimed that five years later, while attending an April 2024 charity event Swalwell was being honored at, the pair reunited. She was not working for Swalwell at this later date, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. The woman indicated that she and Swalwell went out for drinks after the event, during which, once again, she became inebriated and claims that she could only remember bits and pieces about the night, and a funny odor.

“Even though he had hurt me in the past, I felt like he was someone I could trust,” the alleged victim said, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. “Because we shared this secret together, it pulled me closer to him.”
According to the San Francisco Chronicle’s reporting on the alleged victim’s experiences, one moment she did remember from the night was pushing Swalwell away and telling him “no” as he allegedly tried to force her to have sex with him, which can be construed as illegal in some jurisdictions such as the United States of America and beyond.
The woman reportedly texted a friend after the incident telling her she had been sexually assaulted by Swalwell. Other messages reviewed by the San Francisco Chronicle reportedly showed the victim indicating she had “blacked out” but “woke up once during it and even told him to stop at one point.”
“This happened one other time when I was working with him, but I convinced myself I was an equal party in it even though same pattern: I blacked out and he had sex with me,” the alleged victim wrote, referring to the 2019 incident, according to the San Francisco Chronicle’s reporting. The outlet also indicated it spoke with the friend the victim was allegedly texting, as well as the woman’s then-boyfriend who she reportedly told about the assault the next day. The boyfriend reportedly encouraged her to report Swalwell at the time.
However, she did not go to the authorities at the time, according to the San Francisco Chronicle, because she was afraid she would not be believed. Medical records reportedly showed she did obtain a pregnancy and STD test a week following the incident.
Swalwell subsequently messaged the alleged victim after the 2024 incident and told her not to tell anyone about their interaction that night, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. “He even sent me a message: you said you didn’t remember anything last time i [sic] hope you do now,” the alleged victim reportedly texted her friend three days after the incident. “And i said: yeah I’m trying to forget thanks.”
“He was sending messages like we just had a romantic encounter like he knows what he’s doing,” the alleged victim also allegedly wrote to her friend at the time. “He was
gaslighting me into thinking it was consensual.” [Interesting use of the term gaslighting in Swalwell's case.]
Swalwell’s alleged victim began talking to the San Francisco news outlet roughly a month ago, as she was weighing whether to go public with her allegations as they began anonymously surfacing online.
The victim was confused how the rumors began, considering she only told family and a small group of friends about the incident. [All of whom were likely Democrats, so that answers that question.]
The victim reportedly called the Swalwell campaign in March to see if her name had surfaced among the rumored victims, to which one of Swalwell’s staffers reportedly asked her to vouch for Swalwell.
“He was so confident that I would stay silent that he wasn’t scared,” she said of Swalwell.“I have no skin in the game of who becomes governor of California, but I feel people have a right to know whether the person who leads a state that is a safe haven for so many women actually treats women with dignity and will protect their rights,” continued the woman, who still works on Capitol Hill, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. “No one protected me from him, and so I have to protect the other young women like me who aspire to work in this field and he could prey upon.”
As to the victim, Nancy Pelosi has been ruled out.
Late Thursday night, Swalwell’s attorney, Elias Dabaie, sent a cease-and-desist letter that Hunt, one of the individuals amplifying Swalwell’s accuser’s claims, argues is an effort to intimidate those trying to speak up about Swalwell’s history with women.
“Today we learned [Swalwell] is intimidating survivors, serving cease and desist letters on those coming forward with stories of sexual harassment and abuse. He sent this threat in the dead of night — another attempt to delay the truth,” Hunt wrote on social media, attaching a copy of the first letter of the cease and desist letter she claimed to have obtained.
“This is what it looks like when powerful men get caught,” Hunt continued. “These cease and desists are a disgusting abuse of power against brave women who are courageously working together to share their stories. It begs the question: if Swalwell has done nothing wrong, as his campaign claims, why not let the women tell their stories in the light of day? Our team remains steadfast. We will not relent. The women will not recant.”
Oh boy, here we go again, folks. Another day, another Democrat big shot caught with his pants down, literally, and the left is doing what they do best: circling the wagons while pretending they care about women.
Eric Swalwell, the walking national security risk who once thought sleeping with a Chinese spy was just “part of the job,” is now staring down credible accusations of sexual misconduct that would make even Bill Clinton blush. But sure, let’s all pretend this is just a “MAGA conspiracy” and not the same pattern we’ve seen from one Democrat after another.
Look, the facts are laid out, and the hypocrisy is thicker than the fog in San Francisco. Swalwell’s team is out there screaming “false” and “outrageous rumor,” yet women are coming forward with details that line up, texts that exist, and friends who back it up.
Meanwhile, the same party that spent years screaming “believe all women” is suddenly very quiet unless it’s convenient.
